ALEXA

“You said something?”

“Nope, I just humming some random happy song,”

“You sure?”

"Yes. Thank you for being here today!." She swung her arms around my neck makes me choked.

"Th-Thea let me go." She immediately let me go and I take a breath. "Opss sorry hehe." She grabs my arms to go to the receptionist.

"Hello, welcome miss." The people at the receptionist greeted us with a sweet smile. "Hello. I'm Thea Morris..." I just stay quiet and wait for her.

"Oh, Ms. Morris. It's room 368 on the 10th floor." The woman at the counter said. I look at Thea and raised my eyebrows.

"Thank you," Thea said to that woman and then lead me to the lift. "Woah you already booked the room for us?" I ask and she just smiles at me.

“I am well prepared,”

“Yeah right,” I playfully rolled my eyes at her.

"Alexa I'm sorry to ruin the mood of whatever you feeling right now but I need to do this." She said as we walk inside the lift.

"Why are you saying like that? Is there anything wrong?" I ask and she shakes her head.

"You’re my best friend and I want you to be happy. That's it. Just remember you will always be my woman no matter what," I just stay silent and wait until we arrived on the 10th floor.

Ding!

We walk side by side until we standing in front of the room that shows number 368. She gives me the card and I take it.

"Before you open it I just want to say that I did all this because I don't want you to live like this. I mean… yea you will know what I meant..."

It's getting so weird why would she say like that? My heart stomping so fast all of the sudden.

I swipe the card and then open the door. I walk inside and my eyes widen in shock. I can't believe what I saw right now.

My heart just broke in a million pieces. The shirtless Elijah and woman who seems like she's already naked beneath him. I look at Thea but she didn't look at me back and she just face the wall.

I don't know what to say this is so unbelievable. Is this some kind of joke?

"Elijah!" I found myself shouted his name. I can feel my eyes already blurry because of tears. He looks shocked at first then his face becomes blank. He stood up and standing in front of me. I look at that woman who covered herself with the blanket.

"I-I thought you were in London..." I asked with my slow voice.

"You already see me standing in front of you here. Yes, I lied to you," He said and his face doesn't show any guilty.

"Why? Why are you doing this to me?" I ask and now my tears already rolling down my cheeks.

"You want to know why? Because I don't love you anymore. I feel like this marriage was a huge mistake I've ever done in my life. I was thinking why would I have to be tied down so early when I still can enjoy myself with another woman." He said.

Then I slap him in his face. He looked shocked and then I can see the anger in his eyes. My heart hurt thousand more than his face.

"Living with you is such a mistake you know that? So, listen here very carefully, I want you to pack your things from that house and leave. Don't ever thinks of coming back because my lawyer will give you the divorce paper." He said and now I fell into silent and surprised from what he said.

"No... No.. You can't do this to me. I love you with all my heart, Elijah. Besides I'm pre-" He cut me off from finishing my sentence.

"I don't care with all your love whatsoever. Just get lost from my life because I want to be free and enjoy my life." He said and I can see that woman is smirking at me. Such a fucking whore!

"You! You're the one who makes my husband like this!! You bitch!" I really want to slap and pull that bitch hair but Elijah stop me.

"Alexa! You're not my wife anymore from now on. Now, You and your pathetic friend can get lost from my sight because I don't want to see your face anymore."

I look at him hoping all this are a nightmare but no, this is real and I slap him again. Never that I thought I could slap him like this.

“Um hello, Mr. Elijah Perkins the one that pathetic is you not me. At least, I don’t get caught red-handed having sex with a whore. I mean look at her, she look fucking ugly with that blond hair and those messy makeup? Just ew from me. Bitch when you thought you won, you’re wrong. You can take this scum bag and suck his dick forever we don’t care,” Thea said and it is so satisfying to hear.

“Just shut up Thea. This is not your fucking business. Stay out of it,”

“Oh yeah? What if I don’t want to? What do you want to do to me? Kill me? Put me in prison? Come on, a guy like you don’t terrify me at all. Let’s go Alexa. I think you’ve seen enough,” Thea takes my hand and before I walk out from the room, I stop and I look at Elijah.

"You're going to regret this Elijah. Sooner or later you'll regret this, I'm sure of that." I said to him. His face shows anger because I slapped him twice and the outburst from Thea.

Thea pull me out from that room and bring me home to pack my things. "Thea, why did he do this to me? I didn't do anything wrong to him. I love him, Thea." She hugs me. "I love him very much and now I'm pregnant with his child. What am I going to do now? How am I going to say to this innocent child? I can’t do this," I burst into tears.

"I'm so sorry, Alexa. I need to show you the true colour of your husband. I mean ex-husband from now. I don't want you to be like this."

"Please remember you still have your child with you and also you still have me. I'm your best friend. I won't leave you alone. Forget about him and build a new life. I’ll help you with whatever you need. This will take a quite some time but I know you can make it through it. " I wipe my tears and looks at her. As long as Thea is with me, I think I can do this.

When we arrive at home, I went straight to the room and pack my clothes. I didn't take all of it cause I don't want to take the clothes that Elijah bought for me.

I just take my clothes and left all the things that he bought me. In order for me to move on, I cannot bring or take anything even though I can. Just then the bell ring.

Thea walks downstairs to check who it is while I still packing my clothes.

"Alexa..." I turned around and see Thea with one man I guess that's the lawyer that Elijah talked about.
